Pixel Purchase and house edge light line?

I'm looking to start our first christmas light display. I have a diagram of all of the props/designs I would like to start with this year.
(1) Who has the best pixel price if ordering over 1000 pixels? Does anyone have Ray Wu's contact?
(2) What does everyone use to line their house edges? just boysco strips or do you build PVC mounts also?

Re: Pixel Purchase and house edge light line?

Yes, he will adjust the shipping, if you were to order 100 strings straight from the website, you would essentially pay 100 individual shipping costs. By Ray will take into account that they will be bundled together, the total weight, # of boxes and calculate the actual cost to ship the order.

There is also another vendor in China that a lot of the xLights crowd is using that has been building a good reputation, Daniel Zhang, he can be reached on Facebook. he is running about $0.258/pixel shipped DHL (when ordering 1000+) and he will work w/ you on custom lengths

Or for a stateside vendor w/ Pixels at about $0.27 each or less shipped is RGB-MAN, Michael Downey, also on Facebook. Again w/ good reviews from the xLights crowd

Re: Pixel Purchase and house edge light line?

Wait til you first light em up and see how excited you are. It’s an awesome feeling. I’d order 10 or 20% more than I needed just so you have some backups or if you find something else you want to light up.
